Definitions

• the invention relates to the means for locking-sealing of material objects transported mainly through customs, with the view of preventing the unauthorized access to them, in particular of refrigerators, vans, tanks, cars and containers of the railway, sea and air transport, of freights transported in railway cars and containers, trucks etc.
• a monoblock cable seal containing a metallic body wherein there is made a longitudinal blind channel, wherein one end of the cable is fixed, a longitudinal through channel for cable placement therein, at the same time the through and blind channels are made parallel to each other so that the outlet of the blind channel and the inlet of the through channel are disposed onto one lateral face of the body, as well as an oblique hole made into the body and communicating with the longitudinal through channel, wherein there is placed a spring-loaded stopper element made in the form of a ball for interaction with the cable [I].
• the known monoblock cable seal does not possess sufficient reliability. This is conditioned by the fact that between the rigidly fixed cable end and its free end in the as-closed state, there is formed the cable loop, at the application of the stretching force to which it is possible both the slippage and turning-through of the cable about the spring-loaded ball and the axial shift of its fixed end. This can become the cause of ill-intentioned unsealing of the seal ant its repeated locking without detecting the fact of ill-intentioned unsealing.
• the problem the proposed invention resolves consists in increasing the reliability of the seal with respect to the unauthorized unsealing, in combination with the simplicity of the construction, adaptability to manufacture, minimal overall dimensions and cheapness of manufacture permitting to ensure its wide application.
• the monoblock cable seal contains a body, wherein there is made a longitudinal blind channel, wherein one end of the cable is fixed, a longitudinal through channel for cable placement therein.
• the blind and through channels are made parallel to each other so that the outlet of the blind channel and the inlet of the through channel are disposed onto one lateral face of the body.
• Into the body there is also made an oblique hole communicating with the longitudinal through channel, wherein there is placed a spring-loaded stopper element for interaction with the cable.
• Novelty consists in that the body is made all-metal, and one end of the cable is additionally fixed by means of body deformation in the place of disposition of the blind channel with subsequent excessive bent thereof with 180°.
• an additional oblique hole communicating with the additional through channel made into the body parallel to the longitudinal through channel for cable placement therein, at the same time the outlet of the through channel and the inlet of the additional through channel is placed onto one lateral face of the body, and between the outlet of the through channel and the inlet of the additional through channel there is made a transitory groove for cable placement, connecting them, protected by lateral prominences. From the outside the body is covered with a high-durable plastic shell.
• the body of the proposed monoblock cable seal is made all-metal of rectangular shape and presence of the plastic shell prevents the access to its elements in the as-closed state, makes it more convenient in exploitation and permits to apply onto the external plane surfaces of the body the necessary sealed information.
• Fig. 1 monoblock cable seal, general view; fig. 2 - view A-A fig. 1 ; fig. 3 - view B fig. 1.
• the monoblock cable seal contains a metal body 1 in a plastic shell 2, a cable 3, one end of which 4 is additionally fixed by means of body deformation in the place of disposition of the blind channel 5 with subsequent excessive bent thereof with 180°, and the free end 6 of the cable 3 is passed through two parallel longitudinal through channels 7 and 14 of a diameter equal to the diameter of the cable 3, freely placed therein when locking.
• two oblique holes 8 communicating with the longitudinal through channels 7 and 14, wherein there are placed elements 9 fixing the cable 3 section, made in the form of balls spring- loaded by springs 10, the springs 10 bear against blank plugs 11 with plane end face, pressed into the body 1 on the outside, and the fixing elements 9 are placed in opposite direction to each other.
• the body 1 of the proposed monoblock cable seal is made all-metal of rectangular shape and presence of the plastic shell 2 prevents the access to its elements in the as-closed state, makes it more convenient in exploitation and permits to apply onto the external plane surfaces 5 of the body the necessary sealed information.
• the proposed monoblock cable seal is used in the following way. After application onto the face of the plastic shell 15 of the necessary sealed information, at the sealing the free end 6 of the cable 3 is passed through the brackets of the sealed object and then through the longitudinal through channel 7, wherein at the interaction with the fixing element the ball 9 falls into the oblique hole, ensuring the free advance of the cable 3 up to tightening of the loop around the brackets of the sealed object. Further the free end 6 of the cable 3 is passed through the second longitudinal through channel 14 tightening it up to the complete hiding into the protective prominences 13 of the groove 12.
• the authorized unsealing of the device is realized by cutting through the cable section, at the same time the repeated locking thereof is excluded.
